The Text & media template combines headings, text, images and videos into one flowing page. Add as many items as you need and arrange them in any order.
Setting it up
You set up this template in the left panel and directly in the preview in Studio. The numbers in the screenshots match the numbers in the text.
In the left panel
1. Background image
An optional image behind the whole page.
Click Choose file to upload an image, or from library to use an image you uploaded before.
2. Hide the image overlay (checkbox)
The background image has a dark overlay so the text stays readable.
Tick this box to remove the overlay. This may make the text harder to read.
3. Switch to white headings (checkbox)
Makes the headings white, so they stand out on a dark background.
The continue button also turns white.
4. Switch to white texts (checkbox)
Makes the body text white, so it stays readable on a dark background.
✏️ Tip
If you use a background image, switch on white headings and white texts to keep your content easy to read.
In the preview
You add and edit the items directly in the preview.
Heading: a title to introduce or separate content. The default text is "Heading".
Text: body text that supports bold, italic, lists and hyperlinks. The default text is "Fill with some rich text".
Image: click the image and then the pencil icon to choose one of these options:
View image: open the current image
Upload image: upload an image from your computer
Generate with AI or Modify with AI: create or change the image with AI
Select from library: use an image you uploaded before
Edit alt text: describe the image for learners who use a screen reader
You can also add videos:
Video upload: click the pencil icon to Upload video or Select from library. You can also upload a video poster, the image shown before the video plays.
Video url: click the pencil icon and paste a link from YouTube, Vimeo or similar in the Video URL field.
👀 Good to know
Videos added with a URL use the styling of the external video player, so you cannot change how they look. If visual consistency matters, upload your video instead.
Add, move and delete items
Add an item: hover over a dashed line, click the + button and choose Heading, Text, Image, Video upload or Video url.
Move an item: select it and use the arrow up or arrow down button on its left.
Delete an item: select it and click the red trash button on its left.
The order you set here is the order learners see.
